\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tXRP whales are accumulating at record levels as ETF decisions near. Analysts see bullish patterns forming on the charts.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Recent on-chain data from CryptoQuant shows a major rise in activity from XRP whale addresses. The metric, which tracks wallets that moved large amounts of XRP within the past 24 hours, has climbed rapidly since late 2023. This is the highest level recorded since 2015.<\/p>\n

The price of XRP remains more or less steady in this period, notwithstanding the spike in whale transactions. Similar patterns in the past, where accumulation increased during a sideways price movement, have often been followed by powerful upward moves. Mikybull Crypto commented:<\/p>\n

Wow! The most aggressive $XRP<\/a> accumulation is going on right now<\/p>\n

This is massively bullish https:\/\/t.co\/jnfS6EWJbt<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/47ojxRmdhh<\/a><\/p>\n

Familiar XRP Price Pattern Forms Again<\/h2>\n

Charts shared by Mikybull Crypto show XRP forming a descending channel. The previous one appeared in mid-2024, before XRP rose from below $0.6 to nearly $3.6.<\/p>\n

The cryptocurrency was trading around $2.77 at press time. The same setup led to a major price increase earlier this year. The pattern looks nearly identical, and traders are watching for signs of a breakout from the current range.<\/p>\n

The chart also shows the phrase \u201cXRP is dead\u201d placed near past lows, calling attention to bearish market sentiment that appeared just before price surges.<\/p>\n

Bull Flag Setup Shows Possible Breakout<\/h2>\n

Another daily chart, shared<\/a> by Bitcoinsensus, outlines a bull flag setup. This is where price moves up sharply, then consolidates in a downward-sloping channel. In the current chart, XRP has bounced off the same support zone multiple times, while being rejected at the same resistance level.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the formation remains consistent, and a break above the trendline could open the door to higher prices. Bitcoinsensus suggests that if the pattern plays out, XRP could cross the $4 mark for the first time. A similar structure played out earlier this year, followed by a steep rise.<\/p>\n

XRP ETF Decisions Near Key Deadlines<\/h2>\n

XRP is also facing a wave of decisions around exchange-traded fund (ETF) filings. The SEC is scheduled to respond to six XRP ETF proposals between October 18 and November 14, 2025. These include applications from firms such as Grayscale, 21Shares, Bitwise, Canary Capital, WisdomTree, and Franklin Templeton.<\/p>\n

The first ETF to launch<\/a> this year, REX-Osprey\u2019s XRPR, began trading on September 18. With multiple deadlines approaching, XRP is entering a critical regulatory window that could bring more market attention.<\/p>\n

Crypto lawyer Bill Morgan raised questions about risk warnings in ETF documents. Referencing the Cyber Hornet S&P500\/XRP ETF, he noted<\/a>:<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cOne of the risks mentioned is manipulation by XRP whales.\u201d He added, \u201cIf an institutional applicant for an ETF acknowledges the risk of whale manipulation, then it should be considered a real risk.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
